The Princeton Tec Impact II is a flashlight designed for SCUBA diving as well as for outdoors use. It is a small but powerful light that is strong enough to withstand the pressures that diving and divers make of it.

The Impact 2 is a smaller version of the Princeton Impact XL flashlight and so has many of the same qualities. It has a strenghtned glass lens, a clip and ring that will fasten tidily to a BCD or harness and has a nice oval design that fits perfectly into a diver’s hand (not too small and not too big). The Princeton Tec Impact II also claims to use its power supply in a fairly efficient manner providing a pleasing 75 hours of usage per each new set of 4 AAA Alkaline batteries.

Princeton’s Tec Impact II has been tested in cold and warm water environments to depths of 100 meters (300 feet) and so it is more than capable of satisfying the needs of all recreational divers. Its proprietary optics system magnifies its Ultrbright LED turning it into a sharp and precise spotlight that delivers a targetted beam up to 28 meters ahead when the visibility is good. For such a seemingly small device the Princeton Tec Impact II delivers in spades!

Princeton Tec Impact II Review Summary

The Princeton Tec Impact II is highly impressive diver’s flashlight. It is small and lightweight and can be easily attached to your kit, both underwater during your diving activities and overland when you are out and about.

Its efficient Nichia Ultrabrite LED gives just about as much illumination as you will need during night dives or wreck and cave diving (assuming reasonable visibility). Its plastic casing and strengthened lens make it a tough little performer that can be depended on time and again.

Princeton’s Tec Impact II is highly recommended for recreational diving and is well priced to make it accessible to all.
